DATA → DECISION → OPTIMIZATION.
I use performance data to identify what isn’t working, make a strategic adjustment, measure the response — and optimize again.

Kelsey-White / Laundry Detergent Sales Brand / Brand Management Simulation

Growing a laundry detergent brand through data-driven pricing, product and audience decisions.

Kelsey-White was a simulated consumer-goods company, and “Blue” was its laundry detergent brand. As Brand Manager, I used customer, channel, pricing and competitor sales data to decide who to target, which detergent formats to prioritize, how to price the product and how to respond as market performance changed.

Global Cycling Retail / Growth & ROI Strategy

Finding the customer cohort and product levers to target 10% business growth.

A strategy and analytics project built from a cleaned global cycling-retail database of 112,036 orders. I isolated a high-value “Golden Cohort,” then translated the analysis into separate acquisition, pricing and volume strategies across bikes, accessories and clothing.

THE ANALYTICAL QUESTIONWhere is profit actually concentrated?

Rather than treating 112,036 global orders as one audience, I looked for the intersection of the customer and geographic variables associated with the strongest value.

ANALYZE / 01

Start with the cleaned 112,036-order database and compare customer value across age and geography rather than assuming the whole customer base behaves alike.

ISOLATE / 02

Identify ages 24–43 as the top-performing age band, then intersect it with the top 25% of geographies to form the Golden Cohort.

DECOMPOSE / 03

Break the cohort's $16.35M profit into product roles: bikes $10.81M, accessories $4.19M and clothing $1.34M.

ACT / 04

Use those roles to assign different levers: bike acquisition, accessory price-elasticity testing and clothing volume expansion.

OPTIMIZE ↻ / 05

Scale each lever only where the underlying cohort, regional order depth and product economics support it.

Telecommunications / Customer Churn Analytics

Which telecom customers were leaving — and what could retain them?

Analysis of 7,000+ customer records to identify who was most at risk, what was driving that risk, and where retention strategy should intervene.

Month-to-month contracts, fibre optic service and electronic checks carried highest risk.

Prioritize Churn City, Churn Line VIPs and senior customers.

ACTION / 03

Contract promotion, more tech-support touchpoints and segment-triggered offers.

PERFORMANCE / 04

Longer tenure and support interaction were associated with sharply lower churn risk.

OPTIMIZE ↻ / 05

The unexplained churn gap becomes the next analytical problem.
